Terminal scales on each segment brownish forming poorly-differentiated rings. Legs covered with tightly adhering band and brown scales, those of spurs darker, spurs short, epiphysis slender, long but slightly shorter in length than femur and extending slightly past distal end of femur.

Gnathos with arms poorly defined but expanding medially to a broad medial area supporting three or more rows of well-defined spines, extending in height to width of medial pad. Small spines along lateral edge of pad. Furca deflects to right bearing hair-like bristles on inner 20-30%. Furca curves medially, rounded tip. Juxta small, basal area with posterior point.

Ductus bursae short with sclerotized plate dorsally forming collar-like structure. Ductus moderately short. Corpus bursae sac-like with well-defined signum. Dorsal signum round, hollow with star-like basal collar of 13 prongs or points. Center deeply invaginated.
